A collective system approach to the analysis of design cooling loads under the variable influences of climatic parameters resulted in obtaining simple multivariable linear models. It has been found that the peak cooling load bears linear correlations against four building parameters: height, length-width ratio, percentage of glazed area and roof area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
